September 22[edit]

This is a list of redirects that have been proposed for deletion or other action on September 22, 2008

All Things Considered(song) → Yankee Grey[edit]

The result of the debate was Withdrawn A new page on the song was created at All Things Considered (song). NAC. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 23:33, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Normally, I'm all for redirects from songs to artists if the songs aren't very notable. However, this redirect is two kinds of fail because 1.) there's a space missing, and 2.) is anyone really going to type the "(song)" at the end? Seems fairly unlikely to me.

Template:R from alternative punctuation → Template:R from alternative spelling[edit]

The result of the debate was Keep. The redirect can be changed into a template if anyone is up to it. Lenticel (talk) 23:53, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Should they be categorized separately? Bwrs (talk) 06:37, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and close - no valid reason for deletion mentioned upon nomination. 147.70.242.40 (talk) 19:22, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and yes, IMO, they should be categorized seperately as they are two different subjects, different punctuation and spelling. Pie is good (Apple is the best) 23:38, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment as nominator: if they should be categorized separately, then the redirect ought to be broken, and replaced with new text. The comment below is correct; I wanted to suggest that the redirect be converted into its own template. Bwrs (talk) 01:21, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I may be mistaken, but I believe this nomination is really a suggestion that the redirect be converted to its own template. As it stands, anything tagged with {{R from alternative punctuation}} will be added to Category:Redirects from alternative spellings. That does seem odd. -- JLaTondre (talk) 21:13, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • If that's the case, it would seem to me that reverting the redirect to an earlier version and creating Category:Redirects from alternative punctuation might be the best move here. On the other hand, the "target template" seems to be deprecated, according to its talk page. Curiouser and curiouser... 147.70.242.40 (talk) 22:44, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • I'm torn. I don't really see a need to categorize by alternative punctuation, but placing them in alternative spellings seems wrong. Oh well, I don't feel strongly about it so any of the three solutions (maintain the status quo, make it's own template, or delete) is fine by me. Unless there is new input, I doubt it will end up deleted, but I'll remind the closing admin that the template will need to be removed from the transcluding articles if deleted. -- JLaTondre (talk) 12:28, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Eight months is long enough, and none of them have any real history other than being redirects. -- Ned Scott 04:31, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all, I thought soft redirects were only supposed to be used to refer over to other Wikimedia projects. Stifle (talk) 12:26, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
